If I was into place names, maybe Cairo? Daniel David Palmer was the founder of modern chiropractic (but was a bit of a nutcase).

Clara could work as well (Clara Barton). I am leaning more to Agatha – apparently she was/is the patron saint for nurses.

We’re expecting our first baby and if the bump turns out to be a girl, her name will be ‘Iris’. We did also consider ‘Vanda’, a particularly lovely type of orchid but it does sound a little harsh.

I’m a food scientist and wanted Louis after Louis Pasteur (invented pasteurization) and my husband is a computer programmer and wanted Ada after Ada Lovelace (invented one of the first computer languages).
